Jada Pinkett Smith Was 'Devastated' When Jaden Smith Asked To Be Emancipated At 15 Years Old


Every celebuspawn reaches the point where they itch to leave the cushy nest of their movie star parents’ mansion and find themselves.
But that didn’t make Jada Pinkett Smith any less heartbroken when Jaden Smith asked her to be legally emancipated at just 15 years old.
The Girls Trip actress opened up about that brief yet devastating chapter on her Facebook show Red Table Talk alongside her now 19-year-old son.

While Jaden ended up not going through with emancipation — because, you know, he didn’t want to miss out on all that free food in his house — Jada said she understood it was “time” her son freed himself from the “bubble” he grew up in.
Emancipated or not, Jaden’s certainly a free bird now! Watch the full episode also featuring Willow Smith (below).
